In Maracaibo, the Alejandro Borges stadium is undergoing architectural modernization and rehabilitation, which includes the inauguration of the Luis Aparicio Montiel Museum to preserve regional sports history through approximately 270 historical items.

In Valencia, the municipal government is implementing the ‘Plan Venezuela Renace’ to rehabilitate the Valencia Cathedral following structural damage caused by earthquakes in June.
